Fog Vial Number Adjustments
The Nerfs they received were way too extreme. Lets bring them back to a healthy usage rate and level of usefulness. Increased Available Charges to 4 (Was 2) Increased Base Opacity to 40% (Was 33%) Adjusted Fog Effect to make the Visual Distortion of the Fog have the same impact on all Map's Sky Domes (Was too Strong or too…

Top 10 Most Hated Killers
A Player was running a poll to vote for who was the most hated Killer in dbd and after 60k Votes these are the top 10 most hated Killers results. 10. Pinhead 9. Chucky 8. Doctor 7. Nurse 6. Legion 5. Krasue 4. Clown 3. Trickster 2. Knight Ghoul No big surprise tbh with Ghoul being number 1 If you think a killer should be…

Back after a month break
Played 4 games after taking a month break, either me or another survivor gets tunneled out at 5 gens, proceeds to take another break. Good thing those anti tunnel changes didn't go through though right? :)
-
Your code of conduct
Everyone has their own ways of playing and their own rules or code that they play by so lets hear yours. Killer: No intentional tunneling though if I just happen to run into you I'm not just going to ignore you. No face camping but hag or trapper traps are okay. No slugging but chasing another survivor away for a moment is…

Why Kaneki is poorly designed
Before anyone gets me wrong, I do not believe Kaneki to be THAT strong. He's good, but there's counterplay and the 50/50s at pallets are very enjoyable, just as they are against Huntress. The issue is on his LOCK-IN-PLACE attack, which is just very, very, very bad design. Let me explain. On the killer's end, you get stuck…
-
For anti-tunnel, anti collision instead of endurance?
Tunneling remains an issue for newer players. One of the killer concerns with giving survivors longer endurance is that survivors will use it for body blocking. I'm personally agnostic, as I think the trade-off of having new players stay with the game is worth a very small number of players trying to abuse the system.…

Is there Killers with no sound or its maps with sound bugs
Ive encounter 3 survivor matches that the Killer and the Gens made Zero sound. Is there anyone who encounter this. It seems to be only on survivor ive noticed.

Remove gen kick limits
Gen kick limits happened because of how survivors complained about skull merchant . 3 gen situations are usually not the killers fault . if the survivors cannot keep track of which side of the map they are completing gens in .. that is their fault , not killers. I would have no problem if perks didnt effect the limit but…

Letting Survivors Leave, Forcing Killers to Stay: What a Perfectly Fair System
When the exit gates are powered, the match is essentially over. At that point, the killer has virtually no realistic way to turn things around—yet they’re forced to stay in a match that’s already been decided, for up to two minutes. Whether survivors are toxic or not is completely beside the point. Whether they’re…

Ghostface should be a true stealth killer
I love Ghostface, but he honestly feels stuck between being a legit stealth killer and just a regular M1 with a camera. The whole idea behind him is supposed to be the tension of not knowing where he is, but right now his power falls apart the moment survivors start spinning their mouse around like a turbine. If your…

Does anyone actually like playing against new Myers?
Just looking for opinions here, not trying to start any arguments, but does anyone actually like playing against new Myers? He seems to be a combination of nothing but some of (in my opinion) the most irritating parts of many other killers' kits. If anyone has any tips on going against him, they would be much appreciated.
-
DC Killer bots are needed.
Reading over a recent forum about the abandon system I can see frustration with what the abandon system allows from the killer side of things vs Survivor There is a double standard with the abandon feature but I feel like its purely down to if the killer leaves the match just ends. I see two ways this could be resolved by…

Is there a way to eliminate tunneling entirely?
Everyone says we need to create an environment without tunneling. But how do we actually coordinate such an environment? If we were to hang everyone to the average level once, wouldn't that be like forcing everyone to finish a marathon holding hands?
-
Wow...did not miss Ghoul
So I don't enjoy a few killers most times but counterplays that I'm super good at or just they feel dull for example I'm not a fan of Wraith as I can't hear him without headphones and yes I also have a hard time seeing his outline mostly on bright maps. Nurse it's just how her power is in the game it can be very finicky…

I still dislike this
I'm probably beating a dead horse but I'm sorry...why make new main menus for chapters...if your never going use them again? Like it's cool seeing the menu change but...could maybe give players the option to change it to one they like? With chapter 2 of Stranger things coming it got me wondering if it ever had a custom…

Still have a massive hatred for flashlights
Not even as killer...survivor yes if I get a survivor who brings I flashlight I already know what to expect. Will follow the injured survivor around the entire time instead of doing a gen or simply refusing to take a protection hit even though that would be better then just standing there waiting. Yes I know there are…

Please...just remove the bubble
It is extremely useless If the survivor has kindred good luck the bubble hides the aura of the killer depending on how far away they are so by the time the bubble is gone boom aura is probably gone since they moved far from the survivor or even when their close I could be in a gen that's still hidden so progress can't be…

The Point of Bully Squads
So I was thinking. What enjoyment do people get from bullying the killers? I'm talking full on perks and playstyle just for the purpose of bullying. Most of the time they lose the game anyway, because they're chasing around the killer instead of doing gens. Also how is it fun to spend your game running after the killer and…

My Anti Cheater Idea to help punish Cheaters in Games(Joke Post)
I wanted to start this off and this wasn't meant to be taken seriously and was supposed to be a Joke. So please understand that.

Please Consider Adding a South African Server – High Latency Is Making DBD Unplayable
I’m a long-time Dead by Daylight player from South Africa, and I’d like to raise awareness about the severe latency issues we face due to the lack of a nearby server. Right now, we are routed to Europe, resulting in ping ranging from 180ms to 220ms — sometimes higher. This high latency makes precision-based gameplay…

After watching Stranger Things Season 5, Demogorgon deserves a rework
Demogorgon should be able to teleport to any walls, floors, doors or ceilings. Demo needs a model and texture update, more skins such as a burned/damaged demogorgon and a second mori animation where he slash a survivor with his claw which disembowl them then fling the survivor far away.

Player Icons and Banners
Do you think that there will be icons and banners for original characters? It’s a shame there isn’t basic icons and banners for a certain prestige for characters.

Just returning to the game need to be brought up to speed.
So just returned to the game after a loooong break. I stopped playing around the time unknown/chucky came out and a lot seems to have changed. What's the major stuff I need to know? Played a couple of killer games that did not go very well, apparently my mmr hasn't changed since I started my hiatus 🙃 which is very helpful,…

Disable Pain Res if a Survivor is Dead at 4/5 Gens.
The Problem: Frankly, the game is designed as a 4v1. That is why tunneling is so effective; it reduces the game to a 3v1 scenario in which the odds are heavily stacked to the killer (obviously). If a player is dead at 5 gens, the game is essentially a loss for survivors. It's unproductive to give survivors insane speed,…

Why was it gone in the first place?
Why would you take away the fog from the game only to reintroduce it without change a year later? The game's motto is "Into the Fog" so why?

How would the game look like today if ptb 9.2.0 came straight to live?
I’ve been really wondering for the past couple of days on how the game would look if the original Tunneling and Slugging reduction changes made it to live. would players adapt to the changes and find new strategies to win? would there be a mass killer exodus? would the survivor role feel any better? how would queue times…

The Anti tunnel and Slugging Should be put on Hold

The Anti tunnel and Slugging would of created more bugs and issues into the game which Will be mixed with the bugs…

Restore the ability to use Tab as a keybind

Surviviors are in much worse spot now... kinda sad rant
I just turn on the game, stare at lobby and… turn off the game. A lot of my friends actually left the game or just barely play. I look at the friend list and there are only compies and streamers online. None of my friends are willing to play as much as they were before. I don't think game is very enjoyable without right…

Can we add the ability to see exact ping in lobby.
This would be a huge QOL chance as it lets the player decide if they want to verse someone with inconsistent ping that is spiking. there is nothing worse then loading into the match and the killers ping is fluctuating between 60 - 200 the whole match and with pallets how they are now the bad ping is just adding more of a…

Any particular reason anti slug got dropped entirely?
Like, no other game I can think of has 4/5 member's that can have all agency removed on them for 4minutes straight while still technically being in play. hell, I wouldn't even care if they removed the cumulative build up. a 2-3min prerequisite unbreakable would have just been nice to deal with some of the most boring…

DC Penalties Should Be Much More Severe
Let's be honest. People who DC ruin the game for 4 other people. It should be 30 minutes to an hour for the second offense. The first one is free. People often suggest instead of penalizing people to fix "The Root Cause" but how can you fix the root cause for someone who DC's the second they hear Huntress's lullaby? Or the…

Who are the most influential content creators?
Title. Who do you think are the most "powerful" content creators on DBD? Who is truly capable of influencing the judgment/opinion of Devs and players? I think Otzdarva.
